COMMENT. That 'N very nice So what
These, m eNactly five woi and a question
m,u6, N the Ivo age student )(action to a new,
~ tory that males with it the f atm e de , ,tiny of
the Penni,ylvania State College
And yet, how many among the few who even
took time to lend the at tole which appealed in
idav's Collegian stopped to tealwe just
whit effect that five and one-half million-dam
sppi opt 4:Won would hove on on ah eady-ei owded
Penn State 9
11 to Collegian's oupposition that in Mal arat
ren bets this tiguie.N.ould be paltry
And therefore, the Collegian feels, it is about
time that the undergraduate body of Penn StaLe
be clearly informed concerning so vital an issue
It is about time that some sort of understanding
be leached among this same group with refer
ence to the amount of an appropriation which is
well-nigh Indispenslble It Is about time that
Pepn State students act on behalf of this all-im
ptrtakt measure
In view of tins apparent gloss incomprehension
rind shem unconcern, the Collegian seeks
-I—To enlighten an apathetic student body about
a problem that may be a ci um' tinning point
in the life of the Colege
i2—To show the incinheis of thqt group how they,
then IMP small way, elm help solve that
- CONVENIENTLY' SITUATED here on the
campus are nine stwdy, new buildings Some me
completed Some me neming completion And
colt:wily all will be moody for occupation by next
Fail That is, of coui , ,e, provided the new apple
piatmn lull intioduced last week by Senator Lel?.
lei paned by the State Leg)%lame
If, however, the new appropriation is in any
way diminished, these new buildings are Just as
likely to be as bleak anri desolate next year at
ti Is time as they are now Certainly, by all that
is cane and sensible, this would not only be a
detriment to the potential educational facilities
at the dispssal of the College, but also a great
and ruthless waste of public funds
And uho among you, the Collegian asks, would
n,t ue the first to condemn the wanton destruc
tion of basic food commodities while thousands go
hungiy , Who would not assail the =tailing of
pi eduction when only a pi ivileged few have the
common luxuries of life? Who would not lambast
any other equally assmine movement ,
And yet, is there not a great gambit ity between
what will happen bete if the apinomiation Is de
feated and what has happened in agmultme and
industry in the past. 9
The answei is decisively Alit motive
• • •
DARK AS THIS manic may be, the question
is now asked "But what can I do—a student not
yet of voting age"
The ensue' is simple Certainly of the 8,000
students and piofessol s here, 1,000 ale old enough
to vote All of you, tegatdless of age, come train
homes uhieh possess at least two if not three di
i et!, 01 :mined, vote. To be on the safe side, this
estimate is pathetically consei votive
Now then, what legislative body would not take
heed to the wishes of a welhorganized group pos
sessing upwards of 15,000 votes? It is up to all
of us, therefore, to interest our families, our
friends and our relatives in this much-needed
appropriation.
A feeling of apathy on ot u • putt oil! avail us
nothing We must fight foi what we want and for
what ac feel is fundamentally light and just
It is by making those inteieqed in us feel as
we feel that no will succeed Thiough our work
UtKt thefts we are sane of success. Without that
shiivess the cause will be lost
